Answer:

The percent yield would be 73%

Explanation:

The balanced reaction for the obtention of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is the following:

Salicylic acid + acetic anhydride → acetylsalicylic acid + acetic acid

C₇H₆O₃          +          C₄H₆O₃        →         C₉H₈O₄           +    C₂H₄O₂

According to the reaction, 1 mol of salicylic acid reacts with 1 mol of acetic anhydride to give 1 mol of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and 1 mol of acetic acid.

1 mol aspirin (C₉H₈O₄) = (9 x 12 g/mol) + (8 x 1 g/mol) + (4 x 16 g/mol)

                                     = 180 g

1 mol salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃) = (7 x 12 g/mol) + (6 x 1 g/mol) + (3 x 16 g/mol)

                                              = 138 g

1 mol acetic anhydride (C₄H₆O₃) = (4 x 12 g/mol) + (6 x 1 g/mol) + (3 x 16 g/mol)

                                                      = 102 g

The stoichiometric ratio is = 138 g salicylic acid/102 g acetic anhydride= 1.35

We have:

2.0 g salicylic acid

acetic anhydride = 5.0 mL x 1.08 g/mL = 5.4 g

The reactants ratio is = 2.0 g salicylic acid/5.4 g acetic anhydride = 0.37

0.37 < 1.35 , therefore <em>salicylic acid is the limiting reactant</em>.

Now, we use the amount of salicylic acid to calculate the theoretical amount of aspirin. For this, we know that 1 mol of aspirin (180 g) is obtained from 1 mol of salycilic acid (138 g):

theoretical yield= 180 g aspirin/138 g salycilic acid x 2.0 g salycilic acid = 2.61 g aspirin

actual yield = 1.9 g

Finally, we calculate the yield:

percent yield = actual yield/theoretical yield x 100

        = 1.9 g/2.6 g x 100 = 72.8% ≅ 73%

What amount of heat absorbs 50 g of steel (ce = 0.115 cal / g. ° C) that

does its temperature vary by 25 ° C?

Answer:

143.75cal

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of steel  = 50g

Specific heat capacity of the steel  = 0.115cal/g°C

Temperature  = 25°C

Unknown:

Amount of heat = ?

Solution:

The amount of heat to cause this temperature change is dependent on mass and specific heat capacity of the substance.

  Amount of heat  = m C (ΔT)

m is the mass

c is the specific heat capacity

ΔT is the temperature change

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

  Amount of heat  = 50 x 0.115 x 25

  Amount of heat  = 143.75cal

According to the statement

2.12 x 10^4 lbs pounds of CaCO₃ are needed to neutralize this acid

<h3>What is neutralization?</h3>

A chemical reaction in which an acid and a base react quantitatively with each other is known as neutralization or neutralization. In a water reaction, neutralization ensures that there is no excess of hydrogen or hydroxide ions in the solution.

<h3>According to the given information:</h3>

The equation of the neutralization reaction between H2SO4 and CaCO3.

CaCO3 + H2SO4 → CaSO4 + H2CO3

H2CO3 dissociate to water and carbon dioxide.

        CaCO3 + H2SO4 → CaSO4  + H2O + CO2

Now solving for the mass of CaCO3 needed to neutralize the acid.

mass of CaCO3 = 9460 Kg H2SO4  × \frac{1000 \mathrm{~g}}{1 \mathrm{~kg}} \times \frac{1 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO} 4}{98.1 \mathrm{gH}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4} \times \frac{1 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{CaCO}\left(\mathrm{O}_3\right.}{1 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4}\times \frac{100.1 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{CaCO}_3}{1 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{CaCO}_3} \times \frac{2.205 \mathrm{lb}}{1000 \mathrm{~g}}

= 21284.56606

mass of CaCO3 =  2.12 x 10^4 lbs

2.12 x 10^4 lbs pounds of CaCO₃ are needed to neutralize this acid.
